Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: For the smoothest puree, use starchy potatoes like Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes.
- Roast the parsnips: Roasting the parsnips before adding them to the puree intensifies their flavor and adds a subtle sweetness.
- Use chicken broth or vegetable broth: This adds flavor and helps to thin out the puree.
- Don't overcook the puree: The potatoes and parsnips should be tender but not mushy.
- Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste.
- Garnish with fresh herbs: Chopped parsley, chives, or thyme add a pop of color and flavor.
Conclusion:
Parsnip and potato puree is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a side dish or as a main course. It's a great way to use up leftover potatoes and parsnips, and it's a healthy and affordable meal. With its creamy texture and slightly sweet flavor, parsnip and potato puree is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
